Is it legal?
Yes. All bids placed within listing time frame are valid. Here's quote from eBay help: "Placing a high bid in the closing seconds of an auction-style listing is called “sniping” within the eBay community. Sniping is part of the eBay experience, and all bids placed before a listing ends are valid, even if they're placed one second before the listing ends." (http://pages.ebay.com/help/buy/outbid.html)
